WRYR550

I wish I could say I have obtained the source code or that I've given this 100 hours but I haven't. I have found out that if you hold in #1 on the hand mic when you cycle the power it does take you to a differenct menu. I'm hoping one of you all is a lot smarter than me and can take that and play around with it and see what you find.

I’m just outside GR in Wyoming. We will have to connect on a frequency if you’re up to it to see if it’s me or my buddy.

I’m using a midland mtxa24 cable with a midland mtxa26 6DB antenna I’ve got it grounded. The power and antenna I was able to run as far away from each other as possible. At least until they come up to the radio. My buddy I bought him a wouxankg-1000g plus but he didn’t like it, so he’s using a tyt 9800 with a tram browning antenna dual band. I know I’m TX’ing at close to 50 watts 47 to be precise as my niessi swr reader is telling me so.

I don’t have tall buildings but being west Michigan, there are a lot of trees and house. As well as minimal elevation changes. Maybe 100-150ft. I can run on any of the GMRS norm channels but I’m working on 467.650 as I’m trying to see if it is a clear channel to use because I am in the process of setting up a repeater. I’m running an Wouxan 1000g plus and swr meter is saying 47 watts TX @ 1.5 SWR and 1.5 REF.

In a city in west Michigan, with the mention readings I have, I’m on 467….., I’m not getting good range, it is the same across the board on all gmrs bands. I get between a 1 mile - 3 miles with a local buddy. Is this normal range with a 50W radio in the city?

Can neither confirm nor deny . I’ll be digging into this.

Wow first post and I get the famous Notarubicon guy! Challenge accepted!

First post here so roast me as you will. Looking for a group of know it alls on the KG-1000G plus. Being a newb, I have hacked everthing I've ever owned and I want to unlock this radio. Have any of you done it? Do you have a Chirp profile? What software are you using? Why isn't there more content out there on this radio yet!?! lol.
